New President

Welp, it looks like it's Obama for at least the next 4 years. I thought I'd be more disappointed, but I've been kinda over the presidential stuff for a long time. I was a lot more concerned about complete single-party rule, and it looks like the Republicans in the Senate will be able to filibuster on at least some legislation. We'll see how it all plays out.

It looks like the PA House is going to keep the same corrupt leadership yet again. I was really watching the 5oth House district in PA due to corruption and such, and it seems that the people of the 50th district remain more concerned about the $$ and special projects a certain Dem. House Leader gives to them than with any of his ethics (or lack thereof).

But Todd won, so I'm a happy person.

Congratulations to the new president of the United States. May you make decisions according to the happy medium between being a good representative of your constituents and doing what you believe is best for them. Understand that cooperation and concession is the way to get things done. And may you recognize the importance of ethical decisions in your everyday administrative and policy tasks. Best of luck, president-elect Obama.
